You can't connect to a server? // Can not connect to the server

There are many reasons why a connection could not be made to desired server.

  • Check that you really did entered the right address, IP or server nickname

  • Make sure, that your server is not offline. Yes this happens sometimes.
    In that case ask a buddy to connect to the server or contact your server host/the admin.

  • Try to connect to our test server first.


Try the IP & Domain and for TS6 the invitation link

  • Can friends connect to the server? Compare what they did enter in their bookmark or Quick connect field.

  • Are you sure, you did not block the client in your firewall?

  • If it fails, check your firewall settings, maybe you have blocked the client or your disallowed UDP traffic through your router or firewall.

  • If you can reach the server, ask their server provider for network problems or maybe your or their provider blocked your country.

  • Make sure, that the server host has opened port 9987 for UDP traffic

  • Make sure your ISP allows voice programs which need UDP at all.

  • When connecting to a computer in own network always use the LAN IP of that computer. Same counts for mobile clients when you are connected in Wi-Fi.

  • Hint: The client does not need any port forwarding. You only need to be able to connect via UDP to servers.


Additional connection problems in mobile client (Android and iOS)

Follow all steps above first!

  • Use Wi-Fi when mobile connection is blocked from your mobile service provider or has a bad quality or an high ping.

  • Check your connection quality in 3G/4G/5G/Wi-Fi network.

  • Check your ping to target server.

  • Allow the client to connect if you have a antivirus or firewall installed

I am having an issue with TeamSpeak. I keep getting this error when trying to join friends’ group chats and gaming channels. I have no idea how to fix it. I’ve tried everything—resetting my PC, deep cleaning, checking my firewall, Wi-Fi connection, and so on.

When I tried to connect to servers, I couldn’t connect successfully with any of them and all said “Failed to connect to server”. I was able to use teamspeak3 normally for months, and few days ago, the problem suddenly appeared. I am using === Client Release 3.6.2 - 21 Sep 2023.

Hello,

I’m trying to connect to server from Germany. But its not possible. I received failed to connect to server.

Server is from Turkey.
Is there any solution?

It only happens to me on that specific server, I have updated the teamspeak

You can try using the direct IP, otherwise please see the steps linked above:

Maybe it’s a geo-block or your IP is blocked or something

The server you are trying to connect is illegally hosted and does not have a valid licence. It is not an official TeamSpeak server. I have reported the server to the piracy department and it will probably be blacklisted in the near future.

why doesn’t it connect to the server???

Without any information from you or logs, there are no possible solutions.

Please provide us ANYTHING.

Licence outdated. Please update your server to v6.0.0-beta6. Your licence has run to expiration.

To a random problem. One might give a random (still most propable since recent) answer.
